Filed April 23, 2007. Order by Judge Andre M. Davis (approved for publication).
In a follow-up to an earlier opinion (discussed here on this blog), an intervenor in the case, Roxane Laboratories, Inc. ("Roxane"), filed a motion requesting the court to recall the earlier opinion and substitute a redacted version which would omit historical net profit information as being "proprietary" and "highly confidential". The court declined the request, noting that Roxane's request had come not only after the opinion was posted on the court's Web site, but also after a copy could be found on "a popular legal research website" [could it be . . .? ed.], and thus the request was too late. Moreover, the court is a "public institution doing the public's business", and the reasons for its judgments must be exposed for public scrutiny, so even a timely request would likely have been declined.
The Order is available in PDF format.
